Dehydration of Isopropanol by Batch Heteroazeotropic Distillation with Toluene as Entrainer

The dehydration of isopropanol (B) by batch heteroazeotropic distillation (BHAD) is studied by dynamic simulation. The mixture also contains methyl ethyl ketone (A) and toluene (E) as pollutants. The water (C) content of the feed (ca. 2 mass%) is much lower than that of the B-C azeotrope. B can be o...
